Thank you very much everyone for the help, I greatly apreciate it.

The solution was fairly easy.  Even though FP extensions are statically
linked to the descrypt(), apache, which was linked to libscrypt() could
not
deal with it.  I changed my links from libcrypt() to libdescrypt(), yet
that didn't fix the problem.  You must also recompile apache.  Once that

was done, everything worked perfect and no more password mismatch
errors.
All new passwords are crypted in DES after this is done unless you
supply a
MD5 salt ($1$xx) in /etc/master.passwd prior to making the new user.
Changes in existing users are not effected and remain encrypted in MD5.
I now have mod_ssl, frontpage, and apache all working cooperatively...
Conclusion:  libscrypt() will only support MD5, libdescrypt() supports
both
DES and MD5.  Apache needs to be compiled under libdescrypt() in order
to
function correctly with frontpage.  Thanks again.
